The Nike Dunk Low “Brazil” is a remastered version of the shoe that debuted in 2001 and pays homage to the vibrant colors of the Brazilian flag. In 2020 Nike decided to bring back a few of the most coveted Dunks from the shoe’s glory years as part of its lineup of spring and summer releases. With a classic two-tone Dunk color block, the “Brazil” Dunk features a yellow leather base with green leather overlays on the toe, forefoot, and heel. A green leather Swoosh dots the mid-panel and yellow embroidered Nike branding is found on the heel. Like the version that was released in 2001, the white tongue tab with green accented Nike branding and white laces finishes the design. Release date: May 21, 2020.
The earliest and arguably most popular of the forthcoming “Team Tones” pack, the Nike Dunk Low SP “Brazil” effectively revives a colorway near forgotten back in the early 2000s. Going almost two decades’ worth of time without a reissue, the pair is finally seeing the light of day once again thanks to the silhouette’s current resurgence. Fitting of its namesake, the upper brandishes in the South American country’s signature colors, using the vibrant Varsity Maize for the unders and the complementing Pine Green for the overlays. Thin mesh tongues match the former shade, while its applied laces and branded patches depart by way of white neutrals; “Nike Air” insignia dress in green just atop to round off the palette alongside the same-toned outsole. Grab a close-up look at these right below, and if you’re looking to grab your hands on a set, then be sure to keep an eye on the retailers listed below.
Arriving for what is the first time since the early 2000s, the Nike Dunk Low Brazil continues the brand’s trip down memory lane. After reproducing a few parts of the “Be True To Your School” pack only a few months ago, the silhouette is preparing to further expand throughout the year with a large array of colorways — some being collaborations with notables the likes of CPFM as well as retailers such as Bodega and Kasina. But more current, the South America inspired scheme effectively spearheads this Summer’s “Team Tones” collection with a color story quite obvious. Green overlays and yellow unders pay homage to the inspiring country’s signature flag through leather construction, while the tooling, branded patches, and laces accent with neutral white shades.
